When the Denver job came open, I expected Shanahan to be a shoo-in, but only recently I started reading rumors that John Elway and Papa Shanahan were no longer on good terms with each other.

True? Don't know, but seems likely.

Does not surprise me. Thought that might be the case when I heard the hire. Seems a little curious to hire a defensive guy for that team right now...especially...hasn't he been a DC just 1 season?

Would it be wrong to think that Elway has to make sure he is the big boss of this team? Does he need to over extend his control?  Can't have a high profile coach or one whose father was his coach?

Hard to say.

Elway's always been known to have an ego, but who at that level doesn't?

    • No one way to do it, it does appear that with the bigger draft picks of the last 5 years…..majority haven’t steered clear of young QBs on the roster being their hopeful guy. Especially past their rookie seasons but even some the biggest ones have had it early.   As far as Andy Dalton, the two young guys he has “mentored”…..have had very rough NFL starts.  Which really ask the why the heck is Dalton here.   He doesn’t really check any box.  No young potential.  Can’t step in and win.  And his mentor track record with Fields and now Bryce is bad 
    • I had thought the Panthers might let him play out his contract this year and hope he stays healthy. If not draft a left tackle and move Ekwonu to right tackle. 
    • Frankly, if most teams in the NFL lose their starting QB for a significant amount of time, they're screwed. The fantasy is that one has a future Tony Romo or a Nick Foles that can carry a stacked team. The reality is that you might get roughly 3~5 games out of your backup before it all falls apart. Remember all of Peyton Manning's backups? Utterly terrible. Speaking of backup QB's, Raiders may need one. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-qb-aidan-o-connell-suffered-fractured-wrist-in-preseason-finale-expected-to-be-out-6-8-weeks
